Eliminating Jiren

Goten's new appearance was similar to Trunks's, but his hair and the aura flames around his body were green.

"Successful! Goten finally succeeded in becoming Super Saiyan IV! Great! We will definitely win this contest!" Trunks exclaimed excitedly. They hadn't needed to worry at all; once Goten became Super Saiyan IV, he could easily defeat Jiren. With Goten's extraordinary talent, there was nothing to fear.

"It's amazing! This power is so strong, it's suffocating! Thankfully, Goten isn't our opponent; otherwise, I might not even have the courage to fight him," Krillin said in surprise. He had never felt such powerful ki before. It was no exaggeration to say that Goten's current strength was far beyond that of a Hakaishin.

"Krillin, let's leave Jiren to Goten. Let's eliminate the other Universe contestants," Trunks quickly suggested. The fight between Goten and Jiren was beyond their help, but they could handle the remaining contestants from other universes. Most of the powerful ones had been eliminated, and those who remained were of middle or lower strength. With Majin Buu and Android 21, their team was very strong.

"Good," Krillin agreed immediately. Then, with a flash, he attacked the other Universe contestants. They moved like wolves among sheep; few could stop their offensive.

Meanwhile, in the audience, Zeno and Grand Priest watched eagerly.

"Yah!!! Goten is really amazing; he actually changed into a new form!" Zeno danced excitedly. He had thought Goten was going to be eliminated by Jiren, but the situation reversed quickly.

"He has indeed become more powerful. This kind of strength, I am afraid, is not weaker than an Angel. I really didn't expect Goten to make a breakthrough at such a critical moment. His current strength is indeed not weaker than Jiren from the 11th Universe. It seems likely that the 11th Universe will lose the next fight!" Grand Priest nodded, speaking seriously.

It was incredible for a mortal to surpass the level of Hakaishin and reach a strength comparable to an Angel. Such talent was outrageous. If given time, Goten's strength could even reach Grand Priest's level.

Since the birth of the universe, there had never been such a powerful mortal. According to Whis, Goten had only lived for a short dozen years, yet his power had surpassed Hakaishin and Angel levels within a decade. This kind of strength improvement was appalling and unnerving.

Beerus and Shin were naturally excited. They felt the terrifying power emanating from Goten.

"Whis, after Goten transformed into this Super Saiyan IV form, can you feel how strong he is now?" Beerus asked curiously.

"Goten's current strength is no weaker than mine. If we fought, I might not necessarily be able to defeat him," Whis replied seriously. Goten's power shocked him. When they first met, Goten couldn't even beat Beerus, but now, within less than a year, he had achieved Angel-level strength. This kind of training speed was abnormal.

In fact, such rapid growth was not necessarily a good thing. Many might see Goten as a potential danger. People wouldn't care if Goten had ambitions; his strength and talent alone could be perceived as a threat. Whis hoped Goten could restrain his talent a bit after the Tournament of Power or keep a low profile to avoid trouble.

After several months together, Whis had come to regard Goten as his apprentice. Naturally, he didn't want Goten to be too flashy and end up in trouble.

At this time, on the 11th Universe side, everyone's faces were ashen. Especially after Marcarita mentioned that Goten's strength was not weaker than an Angel's, all hope was lost. No matter how strong Jiren was, there was still a gap between him and an Angel, and now Goten was stronger than Jiren. This seemed to be their fate as the 11th Universe.

In the arena, Jiren looked at Goten with serious eyes. At this moment, Goten stood before him like an unfathomable abyss, more like a vast and boundless Universe. Standing in front of Goten made Jiren feel very small, and his firm belief began to shake. Before, he had been certain that Goten couldn't be his opponent, but now he had lost that confidence. The oppressive feeling, like facing the universe, made him understand the gap between them.

"Come on, Jiren. This is my true strength! Now let's decide the winner," Goten said lightly after becoming Super Saiyan IV. The power in his body was as vast as the universe, and he was very confident. Not even 12 Angels could scare him. Along with his immense strength, he also had many powerful abilities, including those of Majin Buu, Janemba, and his immortal body. His strength had grown continuously, and now even an Angel couldn't kill him.

"I have to say, you have indeed become stronger! But I said long ago that I absolutely want to win this game, and I must win. So no matter how strong you become, I will defeat you..." Jiren said to Goten with a very firm gaze. He participated in this competition to obtain the Super Dragon Balls and bring his master back to life. No one could stop him from achieving this goal.

"I am sorry! I will tell you clearly, you can't win this contest!" Goten said lightly, extremely confident. Even if there were two more Jirens, he wouldn't be afraid at all.

"..."

Jiren gritted his teeth and appeared in front of Goten like a ghost, then punched him hard in the face.

Boom! The low crash sound was accompanied by a powerful impact. The surrounding platform was continuously shaken into powder, and there were fewer and fewer platforms to stand on. Boulders hovered in the Null Realm.

"What?? Impossible! Does my full attack have no effect on him?" Jiren was dumbfounded after punching Goten. He had shown all his strength and hit Goten's face precisely, but Goten remained motionless, his expression unchanged. It felt like hitting the hardest metal in the universe.

"As I said, you have no chance of winning now. You can't defeat me!" Goten tilted his neck slightly, a faint smile rising at the corner of his mouth. He grabbed Jiren's wrist, and his right fist hit Jiren's stomach like lightning, sinking more than ten centimeters.

Boom!

Puff!

Jiren spat out a mouthful of blood and his body retreated violently, smashing a dozen boulders before landing on one at the edge. Blood continuously overflowed from his mouth, and his abdomen churned from the powerful punch.

"Waa!! No... impossible!! How could the gap be so big? Absolutely impossible, I am a warrior after fusion." While Jiren hugged his stomach and vomited wildly, he began to doubt himself. Despite the fusion, he was still no match for Goten. The gap between them was like a world of difference, and no matter how hard he tried, it was impossible to close it. The pain in his abdomen made him feel unprecedented despair.

Whoosh!!

Just when he was in extreme pain and despair, Goten's body appeared in front of him again, like a god descending.

Looking down at Jiren, who was vomiting in front of him, Goten spoke, "It's over, Jiren. It is undeniable that after the fusion, you are indeed very strong, but still not my opponent. However...you don't have to despair; there is still a chance to do what you want in your heart."

As Goten finished speaking, a huge ball of energy condensed in his palm, aimed directly at Jiren's forehead.

"What... what do you mean?" Jiren asked, clearly confused by Goten's words. He believed that losing today meant the complete elimination of the 11th Universe, with no chance of survival or reviving his master.

"Go down!" Goten didn't explain further. The energy in his palm exploded instantly, swallowing Jiren's body and turning the huge boulder under his feet to powder. Jiren's body reappeared in the 11th Universe's audience stands, seriously injured and unconscious.

"Jiren..." "Jiren..." Belmod and Toppo rushed to him. Thankfully, his life wasn't in danger. Marcarita quickly used her Angel staff to heal Jiren's wounds completely. Despite the healing, their Universe's fate was sealed.

"Dear, I'm so sorry. I can't help you," Marcarita said to Belmod and Toppo. Although she wanted to change this outcome, she didn't have the ability or the right.

"The tens of millions of years spent with you have been very lucky, Marcarita. Thank you for your care over the thousands of years," Belmod said, surprisingly calm about their impending erasure. He glanced coldly at Goten in the ring, regretting not being able to eliminate this arrogant mortal.

"Oh! How did Jiren get eliminated so quickly?" Zeno asked in surprise. Goten had completely defeated Jiren with only two attacks.

"Yes! Goten has become too strong! Jiren is no match at all," Grand Priest nodded. "Zeno-sama, all the contestants from the 11th Universe have been eliminated. Just now, all the contestants from the second universe, the third universe, and the fourth universe have also been eliminated. Currently, only the sixth universe and the seventh universe are left in the ring..."

According to the rules, the four universes with all their contestants eliminated would be erased next.

"Hmm... If that's the case, let's erase these four universes too!" Zeno said, raising his right hand. "Disappear!" The moment his voice fell, white light was released from his fist. The Gods and contestants of the second, third, fourth, and eleventh universes were enveloped in a silvery white light.

"Zeno-sama, please spare our lives! Please spare us!" cried several Universe Hakaishin, begging for mercy. Despite their pleas, their bodies disappeared little by little, and the Null Realm quickly quieted down. The Angels of the six remaining universes stayed, but their Hakaishin and contestants vanished without a trace. The once bustling Null Realm became empty.

Although this was the outcome Beerus wanted, seeing his opponents being wiped out one by one did not bring him joy. Only the sixth universe remained, and within it, only the fused Kefla was desperately resisting. Her resistance was futile; even after fusing, she couldn't defeat Trunks and Krillin, let alone Goten.

"Hey Beerus... I didn't expect to lose to you again this time! However, I must admit that the mortal level of your universe is indeed very high. We may never see you again... I have always been unconvinced by you, but now, I am convinced!" Champa, who had always had a contentious relationship with Beerus, spoke sincerely. At this moment of parting between life and death, past grievances seemed insignificant. Even being eliminated by the Seventh Universe, he did not blame Beerus, as this was beyond the Hakaishin's control.

"Champa...!!" Beerus murmured, looking at his brother.
